Palestinians Call for Closure of U.S. Mission
(Middle East Monitor-UK) At a demonstration outside America House in the West Bank city of Ramallah, scores of Palestinians on Wednesday called for the expulsion of American diplomats as well as the closure of the U.S. mission in protest against President Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Mustafa Barghouthi, a member of the PLO Central Council, said the continued operation of the mission is "unacceptable." He also said, "We reject any American peace solution or proposal."
